LOL!  I bought a new brand of mixed little rice cracker snacks (my usual is a
different store).  Tey look pretty but weren't spiced much so I fixed it.

1 cup mixed snackies
spritz of canola oil from oil mister
sprinkle with a little medium chile powder and furikake that is heavy on
seaweed and sesame

Snap lid and shake well.  Heat in microwave for 20 seconds then toss and
another 20 seconds.  Ready!
